Digital Advertising Toolkit  

According to our study on buying behavior, 45% of scientific buyers cited internet searches and online journals as a way of learning about new products or technologies, and 42% cited the internet when evaluating potential suppliers of a product. But competition for a buyer’s attention is at an all-time high. In order for science marketers to succeed and meet modern expectations, personalized ad experiences must now be created across multiple channels and devices. But where do you start?
